Dear Lybrate user,
you should contact to dentist for arch expansion. It is a orthodontic case. Which will be treated by fixed orthodontic treatment. It will take 1.5 to 2 years in completion of the treatment.

Be disciplined / wash mouth after any sweets taken.
Brush regularly with mustard oil and salt. Mix.
Any disease like acidity or indigestion must treated.
Some times toothpaste creates tooth prob.
So avoid it.

teeth sensitivity is a result of loss of outer most layer(enamel) of teeth..that can be due to :
- Tooth grinding
- Acidic beverages (such as soda) that cause enamel erosion and dentin exposure.
- Brushing with a very abrasive toothpaste, brushing incorrectly and/or brushing more than three times a day could result in a loss of enamel.
- A chipped or fractured tooth may expose the dentin.
here are few steps to avoid sensitivity of teeth:
- Practice good oral hygiene.
- Use a sensitivity toothpaste like Sensodyne.
- Don't brush too hard.
- Use a softer toothbrush.
- Take care while consuming acidic foods.
- Use fluoridated dental products.
- Avoid grinding your teeth.
- See your dentist regularly for professional tooth cleaning, dental care recommendations and advice on treating your sensitive teeth.

Mouth ulcers are due to underlying problems, like deficiency of vitamin b12, folic acid, zinc, iron, or gastro intestinal disease, like coeliac and chorns disease. You can take vit b 12 and folic acid for 1 mth. Along with this take merc sol 200 / 4 dose in d. W/ bd x 2 days.

This could b either due to sensitivity due to loss of enamel surface or due to decay of tooth. Tooth decay can b treated by filling of tooth or by rct n capping of the decay is deep. Sensitivity can b reduced by using desensitizing toothpaste such as senquelF or sensodyne toothpaste by rubbing some amount of toothpaste onto ur tooth surface n wait till 5 mins before rinsing it off. Get ur teeth evaluated by dentist to know the cause of ur problem n get treated accordingly. Regsrds.

The product has its pros and cons as other products does.
PROS
1.It has nice taste.
2. And the freshness lasts longer
3.Has good antibacterial property of neem and turmeric
4.Its soothing action on the cavities and gums
5.Minimum side effects
CONS
1.It cannot be an alternative to dental treatment as it cannot reverse progression of cavities or gum diseases.
2.As it soothens (obtundant) effect of clove oil on regular basis misguides the pain respose which would end up in the end stages of the disease finally results increased cost of the dental treatment in late stages of the disease or the tooth should be removed if caries or periodontal progression goes beyond to save the tooth
3.The turmeric might cause tooth discolouration in long run.
As far to my knowledge is concern use it just if you want to give a try but I will never reccomend it on regular basis.
